Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour (for coating peaches)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups diced peaches
- 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners, spraying them with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Mix in the Greek yogurt until just combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix. Toss the diced peaches with 2 teaspoons of flour and gently fold them into the batter.
- Scoop the muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
- In a small bowl, mix the turbinado sugar with cinnamon, then sprinkle over the muffin tops.
- Bake for 20-24 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Feel free to substitute the peaches with other fruits like blueberries or berries for a different flavor.
For added richness, consider using buttermilk instead of Greek yogurt.
